Mathematics of Secrets - Cryptography from Caesar Ciphers to Digital Encryption Holden JoshuaPaperback / softback
Explaining the mathematics of cryptographyThe Mathematics of Secrets takes readers on a fascinating tour of the mathematics behind cryptography--the science of sending secret messages. He focuses on both code making and code breaking and discusses most of the ancient and modern ciphers that are currently known. Using a wide range of historical anecdotes and real-world examples, Joshua Holden shows how mathematical principles underpin the ways that different codes and ciphers work.
Holden goes on to explore polyalphabetic substitution ciphers, transposition ciphers, connections between ciphers and computer encryption, stream ciphers, public-key ciphers, and ciphers involving exponentiation. He begins by looking at substitution ciphers, and then discusses how to introduce flexibility and additional notation. He concludes by looking at the future of ciphers and
